What do you do when you can't sleep? I am up now as in pain and can't sleep.

I enjoy being on the computer, reading quilt magazines and looking thru my cookbook collection.

I'm sorry you're hurting Karen! Have you tried something like Tylenol PM?

When I can't sleep...I wake up William! He keeps me company, and I usually get relaxed enough to go back to sleep...

Aww, I'm so sorry you're hurting and can't sleep. It happens to me often, but usually not from pain.
I keep Friendship Tea made and a cup of that usually puts me right out, even though there is nothing in it to cause drowsiness. Has just always effected me that way, which is a good thing if I want to sleep, but not such a good thing if I just crave a cup. lol
Hope you can get relief soon.

Thanks I injured my siatic nerve 8 years ago as I fell on icy wooden steps. I went to the Dr. yesterday and got a pain shot as I get them every 3 months.

I am having fun reading all of the messages!

where do you find Friendship Tea?

Would love to have you share your recipe for friendship tea...lost my copy from a friend from high school. Hers used Tang and instant tea :D

When I can't sleep...which is most nights because of pain I usually come here or try to read a book. Usually works for me to go back to sleep otherwise I'm up for the rest of the night :(

I went to the store the other day and in Indiana (they have recalled all tylenol so can't get it now for 1 1/2 months) I asked the pharmacy the other day and said they didn't know when they would be getting any more in

okay we need the friendship tea recipe, please, pretty please

Want me to send you some? I'd be happy to do that!

There are a couple at this site that sound like it:
